The moment Ayaan heard the panic in his parents' voices, he rushed out of his room and ran straight to them.
Ayaan: "What happened, Mom? Dad? Why do you both look so scared?"
His mother's face had gone pale.
Fear was clearly visible in her eyes.
Mom (in a trembling voice): "Beta… they're back…"
Ayaan froze for a moment.
Ayaan: "Who… Mom? Who's back?"
His father took a deep breath, as if gathering the courage to say it.
Dad: "Them… our greatest enemies… the werewolves.
They tried to attack me today… but somehow, I managed to escape."
The moment Ayaan heard this, anger and tension flashed across his face.
Ayaan: "Dad, don't worry. I'm here. I won't let anything happen to either of you."
His mother immediately interrupted—
Mom: "I don't think these are ordinary werewolves…
They are from the Alpha family… the ones who swore revenge against us."
The atmosphere in the room grew heavier.
Ayaan: "But why, Mom…? How did we become their enemies?"
His father slowly looked at him… and began speaking.
Dad: "Just like we once needed human blood…
and hunted humans to survive…
there came a time when our ancestors realized it was wrong."
"We stopped killing humans…
and learned to survive on animal blood instead."
"Our lockets and rings help us control our instincts…
to live among humans… like them."
He paused for a moment… then continued in a lower tone—
"But werewolves…
they hunted us."
Ayaan's eyes widened slightly.
Dad (his voice turning grim):
"We were their prey.
They didn't just drink our blood…
they tore us apart… devoured us alive."
"Sometimes… not even our bones remained."
Silence filled the room.
After a moment, his father continued—
Dad: "Eventually… our ancestors and theirs formed a treaty."
"They agreed—
no more bloodshed."
"They would stop hunting vampires…
and we would stop killing humans."
"For a long time… peace existed."
Ayaan listened carefully.
But then his father's tone darkened even further—
Dad: "But the Alpha family…
never accepted that peace."
"They rejected the treaty…
and formed their own faction."
"They chose a leader—
the Alpha."
Ayaan's heartbeat began to rise.
Dad: "That Alpha…
and his son…"
"…were both killed… by Arnav."
Ayaan went completely silent.
The weight in the room became unbearable.
His father spoke again—
this time, slower… darker…
Dad: "And now…
it seems… they've come back…"
"…for revenge."
Silence.
Just three people…
One truth…
And a storm waiting to break.
Now the question remained—
Was the Alpha's hatred driven only by revenge…
or was there a deeper secret hidden behind this feud?
And was this just the beginning…?
Or…
Was an ancient war about to rise once again?
What do you think will happen next?
And who was it with red eyes?
